Abstract

(E)-N-((8-Hydroxy-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido-[3,2,1-ij]-quinolin-9-yl)methylene)-4-tert-butyl -benzhydrazide has been developed as a single, dual-functional chemosensor. The chemosensor showed a good selectivity and sensitivity toward to Al3+ and Cu2+ at a low detection limit, respectively. Theoretical calculations have also been carried out to understand the configuration of the complexes.
